Male Lead's Canon Fodder Wife-Chapter 1520: Dangerous Encounter
Chapter 1520: Dangerous Encounter
Han Lihua walked over after she heard her cousin’s words. When she saw the mushrooms, she quickly took out her hoe while saying, "Sister Liling, let’s ask Aunt Huang to make mushroom soup tonight."
"That’s a great idea!" Han Liling nodded.
While the two of them were busy collecting mushrooms, a pair of eyes watched them from behind the bushes.
As the weather was getting cold, most of the wild beasts had started to prepare for the winter season and come out to hunt. Due to this, some of the wild beasts that lived near the border would often come to the mountain foothills.
The wild boar let out several huffs as its eyes locked on its prey. Compared to the animals in the mountain forest, it was easier to prey on the young children.
Not knowing the danger lurking behind them, the two sisters were happily filling their bamboo baskets with the mushrooms. When they finished gathering the matured mushrooms, they left the young mushrooms to continue growing.
As they stood up, the wild boar suddenly let out a grunt and rushed towards them. Its sharp tusks gleamed under the sunlight as it aimed its head at the back of Han Lihua.
Hearing the rapid steps coming from behind, Han Liling turned her head. The moment she saw the wild boar, the memories of her being attacked by it before resurfaced in her mind. Her knees weakened, and she fell to the ground with a pale face.
Seeing her like this, Han Lihua was shocked and exclaimed, "Sister Liling, what’s wrong with you?"
The distance between them and the wild boar was not far, and it would reach their location soon. Gathering her strength, Han Liling pushed her cousin and shouted, "Lihua, run!"
Finally noticing the wild boar, Han Lihua was scared. She pulled at her cousin’s hand and said, "I won’t leave you behind!"
"Run, or it will be too late!" Han Liling said anxiously.
While the two of them were trying to run, the wild boar already appeared in front of them.
Seeing this, Han Liling pulled Han Lihua into her embrace and used her body to protect her while shouting, "Watch out!"
At this moment, she had prepared to die to protect her sister. With closed eyes, she hoped that her sister would be able to survive. freewёbnoνel-com
Duagh!
They heard the sound of something crashing, but they didn’t feel any pain at all.
The next moment, they heard the grunting sound of the wild boar, followed by an unfamiliar voice asking, "Are you two alright?"
Opening her eyes, Han Liling raised her head and saw the back of a boy. The boy was holding a thick stick with a sharpened edge on one side.
Chen Jianmin glanced at them and, seeing that they were fine, turned to his brother and said, "Jianguo, take them away."
"Brother, what about you?" Chen Jianguo asked.
"Ah Li will be here in a moment. I will hold this wild boar back. You bring them to safety," Chen Jianmin said without moving his gaze from the wild boar.
Hearing this, Chen Jianguo didn’t waste any more time and helped the Han sisters to run. They ran to the distance but didn’t leave, as they were worried about Chen Jianmin’s safety.
Being hit on the head, the wild boar was dizzy. It shook its head a few times before it regained its senses. When it raised its gaze, it met with a pair of eyes full of killing intent.
Its animal instinct flared as it screamed of danger. While its instinct was telling it to run, the wild boar was stubborn and determined to take down its prey.
After a few moments, the wild boar lowered its head and rushed toward Chen Jianmin as it aimed its tusks at his stomach.
Seeing this, Chen Jianmin gripped the stick tightly and jumped to the side before the wild boar hit him. As he dodged the attack, he stabbed the stick into the wild boar’s neck.
Feeling the pain, the wild boar let out a long squeal. While the attack failed to kill the wild boar, it managed to injure it. With blood dripping to the ground from the wound, the wild boar stared at him with killing intent.
Noticing this, Chen Jianmin pulled out the dagger given by Li Chenmo from its sheath. Holding the sharpened stick in his left hand, he was planning to kill the wild boar in one move using his dagger.
The wild boar let out a long, high-pitched scream before it rushed towards him again. This time, Chen Jianmin didn’t dodge and stabbed the stick toward the wild boar’s eyes.
But facing the hard wild boar’s head, the stick broke into half and failed to harm it.
"Jianmin!"
Syuu~ Stab!
As the stick missed its target, an arrow flew at a fast speed and hit the wild boar’s side neck. Due to this, the wild boar missed its target and fell to the ground.
Taking advantage of this opening, Chen Jianmin raised his dagger and stabbed the wild boar’s nape. The wild boar struggled for a moment before it breathed its last.
Finally killing the wild boar, Chen Jianmin sat on the ground covered with warm blood while breathing heavily. As the adrenaline in his blood calmed down, he finally felt tired and scared. Just now, if not for Dong Li’s arrow, he would have been heavily injured, if not dead, by now.
Dong Li squatted beside him and checked his body for a moment before he asked angrily, "Chen Jianmin, are you tired of living?! How dare you face a fully-grown wild boar alone?!"
Hearing this and noticing his anger and worries under his harsh words, Chen Jianmin smiled and said, "I know my limit, and I trust you will come to help me."
"What if I come late? You are too overly confident and reckless!" Dong Li glared at him.
Seeing his brother was so angry, Chen Jianmin finally sighed and said, "Alright, it’s my fault. Sorry. I will be more careful next time."
